I've mentioned it here before, but I used to be a huge wrestling fan. It all started when I was a kid, and got into WrestleMania. I used to love watching Hulk Hogan, Roddy Piper, Bret Hart, and so many others. It was fun, exciting, and even had some surprises. Sure, it was always scripted but it didn't matter because I loved it.

Fast forward and I lost touch. Well, until I got into WCW. I enjoyed watching the NWO. Nash & Hall were some of my faves. But when WCW spiralled out of control and eventually crashed and burned, I found myself tuning out again. Every now and then, we'd catch a little of WWE, but with the same crap happening all the time, I just couldn't watch for long.

Yet, today, I saw a glimmer of hope. Because an industry that is basically run by one man, can't be any good. We watched TNA iMPACT! and I thought it was great. I hadn't been excited about wrestling for a while. And maybe, just maybe, WWE could have real competition. I hope it does, because then things can finally get interesting.

Anyway, at least I enjoyed this one. :) And I got a kick out of finally seeing women actually... uh, wrestle! I mean, for the longest time, they haven't wrestled at all. It was fun to watch two exciting women matches.

I can't believe it's Thursday already. Only two days left of this week, so I'll just keep on getting little things out of the way. I've caught up on all of my outstanding interviews. Now I only have two guest blog entries to write and one feature. But I've got a little more time with both. So, I'm going to concentrate on getting a shortie finished. I've already revised it, but I need to give it another read before calling it done. ;)

Other than that, I'm going to concentrate on reading. I'm now sitting @ page 351 of FLOOD. Yikes! Lots of horrid things going on in this book. :/ But it's so good!
